Assign & Clean Data to Plot

msleep <- ggplot2::msleep %>% # we need to assign the data set "msleep" found in ggplot and assign it to our current RMarkdown.
  rename(`Type of Diet` = vore, `Total Hours of Sleep` = sleep_total) %>% #changes names before making graph so axis doesn't need to be changed later
  na.omit() #removes any incomplete or N/A data from data set

Creating a Bar Graph

# Create a bar graph
Q <- msleep %>% # We have assigned our graph the letter Q to request it easily later
  plot_ly(x = ~reorder(`Type of Diet`, -`Total Hours of Sleep`), 
          y = ~`Total Hours of Sleep`, # changing the order of how the bars show up so they're increasing in hours of sleep.
          type = 'bar', # type of graph
          marker = list(color = rainbow(nrow(msleep), #uses rainbow colors for bars indicating their sleeping hours individually and as a dietary group.
                        alpha = 0.7))) %>% #determines the transparency/opacity of the bars 0.0 being completely transparent
  
  
  layout(xaxis = list(title = "Type of Diet"), #naming x-axis
         yaxis = list(title = "Total Hours of Sleep"), #naming y-axis
         title = "Total Hours of Sleep vs. Type of Diet") #naming graph

Animating your Graph

# Add animation to the bars
Q <- Q %>% 
  animation_opts(frame = 100, easing = 'elastic') #controls timing and style of animation,
